First of all, obviously you can’t include ingredients you don’t like at all - otherwise there’s no point to the game. I’ll now review some of the answers, but I can’t review ingredients I can’t stand or have never tried. > [@](#): > > grapes, limburger cheese, brussel sprouts I don’t know specifically about limburger cheese, but melted cheese on brussel sprouts sounds pretty good. > [@](#): > > Buttermilk, cranberries, and pop rocks. Wouldn’t buttermilk and cranberry pancakes taste good? > [@](#): > > vanilla ice cream, black pepper, and lemonade I’m not sure how you’d combine vanilla ice cream and lemonade, but I’m not sure it would taste bad. > [@](#): > > Orange juice, Toothpaste and Guacamolie While I can’t stand orange juice and toothpaste, I don’t think toothpaste really qualifies as an ingredient. > [@](#): > > Pastrami, grape jelly, rocky road ice cream. You’ve never put jelly on ice cream? > [@](#): > > Cheddar cheese, maple syrup and peaches. Would maple syrup on canned or cooked peaches be so bad? ---

I am so freakin’ weird. In 90% of the combos listed, I can easily imagine two of the ingredients tasting good together. About half of them I’ve actually eaten…and enjoyed it. ---

I can say that here in college we sometimes run out of food, and I have eaten a peanut-butter, mustard, and cheddar cheese sandwich. It wasn’t too bad… ---
